‼️‼️SUPER BOWL ALERT ‼️ ‼️

Just a boy with a dream that didn’t pan out. Maybe not the most intimidating middle linebacker the West Raiders ever saw but this kid grew up with a deep desire to feed your stomach and your soul and on Super Bowl Sunday he’s dropping off raw bars for your party.

Pricing starts with 50 beautifully shucked with mignonette and lemons. All shucked over ice for $226 (delivery included). Add-ons such as shrimp, crudo platters and caviar service is always encouraged.

When you’re finished slurping them down you throw the whole display away. Easy peasy.
